Water on the floor by the door, Dec 11, 2008, Twiltley Branch Campground, Collinsville MS
I have an idea how to deal with A Tale of Two Leaks
But I can't work on it until the roof dries out. Meanwhile the wood framing gets wetter and wetter - not a good thing.
I just checked the weather forecast
Today: Snow, mainly before 4pm. The snow could be heavy at times. High near 39. Northwest wind around 15 mph, with gusts as high as 25 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. Total daytime snow accumulation of 3 to 7 inches possible.
Right! This is Mississippi, remember.

Tools for Communicating
There is no one who can know everything anymore, because there is simply too much information for one lifetime. In the gaps, our tools grow (I choose the organic term carefully), and they allow people to unite and divide movements, to undermine leaders, to elect the unwilling to roles of leadership into which they might grow. No single person can dominate in this world for very long these days, because our tools for communicating link us like ants and we can move the world while undemocratic leaders try to hold it still. People peck the man on the big horse to death like hungry ducks if he leads them down the wrong path or takes too many liberties on the journey.
